    Does anyone know the following info about these tires?

    Brand
    Size of Rear
    Size of White Wall
    Size of Rims
    Size of Front Rim

    Getting alot of mixed info from numerous tire shops. They arent cheap and I want a certain look.

    Thank

    Joe

    No, I don't...........but..........you might try measuring something in the photo...like a talllight (from another like kind Chevy truck or a window dimension) and once you know it's dimensions you can figure out the size of the wheels, tires and whitewalls.

  3. They look to be about a medium or so.

    Having owned alot of 48-54 Chevy trucks and a burb, all real low like those pictured...My educated guess is this..

    15x6 front
    15x7 rear
    205 or 215 75 15 front
    215 or 225 75 15 rear

    **MAYBE a 235 rear but dont think so.

    Whats the biggest you can go in the front where the truck sits level to the rear and you still have full turning radius?

    Depends on how low you are, what front suspension you have etc.
    If you have a MII, then likely the wheels are pulled in and you can be alittle taller and still turn.
    If you have some subframe, where the wheels are way out, then you cannot get near as low.

    So some basic info and maybe a pic would be helpful.

    If your truck sets and looks like the 2 above, I personally wouldnt run anything bigger than a 215/75/15 on a 15x6 wheel. Turning may be limited.

    I have a TCI complete ch***is with a mustang II with stock spindles. Eleven inch disc brakes all the way around. Retro shock in coil all around and 4 link in the rear. The green truck picture I like the ride height and would like to run the same size tire in the front, so the truck sits level without the nose down. Also I like how the rear fender doesn’t show a lot of open space.
